Learn the amazing design benefits of a moody green bedroom with this bedroom makeover, before and after.Post may contain affiliate links for your convenience.Dark green is no stranger to my home.In our last house, I paired a dark forest green with modern board and batten for a beautiful accent wall in our primary bedroom.This was one of my most popular bedroom makeovers for years. I give all the credit to that beautiful dark green wall.After four years of that color I decided to lighten the space with all white walls. Even though I love and prefer white walls in the main living spaces, I regretted it pretty much right away and missed the calming feeling the green provided for a bedroom retreat.When we moved into our new home, I knew I wanted to bring a moody green back into our bedroom design.I’m excited to share this bedroom makeover before and after with you today!I’ll also be sharing the amazing design benefits of using a moody green color in your bedroom. By the end of this article, I’m pretty sure you’ll be convinced.When we moved into this home, all of the bedrooms were a wonderful blank slate.All white walls is a great starting point to have the brain space to envision a new design plan. I used this to my advantage in my son’s bedroom. He wanted brick and I took it from there!You can see how I transformed his blank slate to a teenage man cave in this article.In the primary bedroom, I wanted to create something that was restful, cozy and easy to accomplish.Paint works wonders to transform a room with minimal budget and effort.I decided to create a dark green moody bedroom that not only utilizes dark green on the walls, but on the ceiling too. Painting the ceiling creates the feeling of being encapsulated.Like a warm hug upon entering the room.And I love how it turned out!I am affectionately calling this “phase 1” of the bedroom makeover.A little paint goes a long way. Even as I was completing this bedroom makeover I kept having new ideas.Eventually, I’d love to replace or DIY the bi-fold mirrored closet doors. I’d also love to add some wall treatments to even further elevate the moody green on the walls. And, we will also replace the dated ceiling fan with something more modern, like our last bedroom had.All of this will come with time!While there are many beautiful color options for a bedroom, I am extremely partial to green. Green is a beautiful color for a bedroom as it is refreshing and nurturing at the same time.I chose to do a slightly lighter moody green within the same color family on the ceiling. My goal was to avoid the room feeling dungeon-like.An easy way to do this is to simply choose the paint chip one level lighter on your samples. I love how cozy it makes the room feel without being too dark.Beyond the beautiful new paint colors, much of the items we have in our bedroom came from our last home.The bed, bench, rug, curtains and artwork were all items we have had and loved for years.The artwork is antique and the bench is one of a kind, however I’ve rounded up some similar items for you below!SHOP THE LOOK Turn on your JavaScript to view contentThe only items we purchased new for this space were a pair of beautiful nightstands and some fresh sheets. The rest of the decor was sourced from around our home.You can find shoppable sources to these items below.There is a reason (7 actually) I chose a moody green for our bedroom.Moody bedroom colours have so many benefits. Some of them are related to personal health and wellness and others are related to home design. Pair them together and you have a recipe for greatness!Some of them are personal benefits, like a better sleeping environment. While others are amazing interior design benefits.

It’s incredible the difference paint can make. We will be moving in the spring and our new home doesn’t get much natural light in the master bedroom. Do you think doing a moody green without much natural light would amplify the “dungeon” feel? Or should I stick to lighter colors, such as white or cream to brighten the room?ReplyIt’s beautiful! Our new master bedroom doesn’t get much natural light either, so I had it painted in white, with a wood vaulted ceiling in a herringbone pattern (my contractor was an amazing carpenter!). I’ve thought for sleeping I would paint it a darker color, but just not sure yet. Not that we have the time right now, so I have time to make up my mind. Your armoire is beautiful against the green wall.ReplyThis site uses Akismet to reduce spam.
